I'm putting up the ol' gal. 1990 Brougham with 5.0 motor. It's my daily driver. Western 100% rust free body. Every single option works like new including Climate Control, Twilight Sentinel, 8 way split bench seats, windows zoom fast as new, cruise, radio, pwr mirrors, trunk release/pulldown, everything works great except washer pump. Steers like brand new. 100 miles on new tires. Engine & trans excellent. Cosmetically needs left front bumper end and drivers armrest, I HAVE THOSE NEW IN THE PACKAGE! And clearcoat peeling. Steering wheel needs replaced. Rest of bumpers mint. Leather interior fantastic except 1 inch cut under front armrest. I'm selling because though engine burns no oil, runs whisper silent most of the time, there is a sensor or something needing diagnosed and replaced. It occasionally causes rough sluggish driving, then goes away. $3000, will drive coast to coast.

UPDATE!! I took the car to get it scoped. He found all sorts of screwy readings. He unplugged the battery for 10 minutes, hooked up battery, and suddenly no funny readings, and the car zooms very fast! I cannot explain that, the car is much too new for me. Anyway, it runs like a champ now. All he replaced was 1 vacuum line. Car will drive cross country or cross Death Valley in climate controlled comfort. Any nibbles? I have found that the 90-92 Broughams are very popular but have not heard a word.

Price slashed, was $3000, then $2500, now $1800! Reason is my wonderful dog Wiggles needs emeregency spleen surgery within 24 hours. Or, she will die. Please pardon the desperation. Wiggles is the only dog I've ever had, she's 10 years old. I'm utterly grief stricken.

What kind of weird-ass genetic experiments are you doing out there on the left coast?

Whatever comes out, put me on the list for the pick of the litter!

I hope Wiggles lives to mate with the cat another day.

Hi John, have you sold her yet? If not maybe you can part her out and make more money. If so please let me know. Bill

Car has sold for pennies. I'll never own a newer car again. Yes, a 90 is a new car to me. Anything with a dozen USELESS brains under the hood is too new. Such a nice car with all those ridiculous problems with all those brains. The latest problem was, I unhooked the battery 15 minutes like a shop recommended. Upon hooking it back up, the radio & antenna didn't work. It did this before and suddenly started working days later. Buyer arrived from hundreds of miles away after being told everything worked. Buyer was upset about radio/antenna so I sold the car for a pittance.
  No more newer Caddys. You guys can have them and their useless brains. Now I'm driving a cherry 71 Olds 98 WITH NO BRAINS, and finishing a 66 Fairlane 500 XL Convertible WITH NO BRAINS. [Yes, I love OLDER Caddys]. I'm considering maybe a 64 Deville Convertible, back when a Caddy was a REAL car, not a problematic electronic nightmare.
